Cebu Metropolitan Cathedral attraction highlights
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Cebu Cathedral is a newer church located one block away from the Church of the Infant. Compared with the slightly decadent sense of age of the Church of the Infant, it is neat, solemn and simple, combining the styles of modern minimalism and classical churches. The popularity of the Cebu Cathedral is slightly weaker than that of the Holy Infant Church, but the exterior and interior are more gorgeous, and the church at night is more beautiful. There are often newlyweds holding weddings there.

A blessed church for catholic devotees. This is must visit place to solemnly pray.
The cathedral is a famous attraction in the city. The overall appearance of the white building is in the Spanish colonial architectural style. The original church was destroyed during World War II, and the current one should have been rebuilt in the 1950s. When I went there, it seemed that there was a worship service inside. I stayed there for a short while and then left.
The churches here were all built during the colonial period. Spain was very powerful in early ocean voyages. Magellan also discovered this place and built many buildings, including some churches. This main urban area includes a very unique old building complex.
【Philippines - Cebu - Cebu Cathedral, Philippines】Wandering around several historical sites left over from the Spanish colonial period in the afternoon. Magellan, the great navigator, spread Catholicism here, and he himself is buried in Cebu. I was lucky enough to see a wedding in the church, which was solemn and lively, and the beautiful singing of the choir was still lingering.
When I went to the church, it was during a service and the pastor was giving a sermon. It was not convenient to take pictures in the lobby, so I just took a look at its inner courtyard, the big clock outside and other details!
When I arrived... there were many people coming to worship... tourists can enter the park for free... there are separate passages for entry and exit... you need to open your bag for inspection... there are many flower sellers at the entrance... and there are also parasols for rent...
